The Bridge

TFA DC Alumni Bridge Association is a group of young professionals that seeks to bridge the gap between Corp experience and alumni induction. They create a support network of alumni in the area who wish to engage with the TFA community after they complete their Corp commitment. They provide multiple ways to engage from social outings to various networking opportunities. Their aim is to educate and organize alumni around DMV-specific issues in order to cultivate meaningful progress towards One Day.

The Collective

The DC Collective is an active community of color that is deeply committed to creating and supporting a network of people who are passionate about ending educational inequity for students in DC, Maryland, and Virginia.

PRISM

Teach for America’s LGBTQ Community Initiative believes in being both culturally responsive, LGBTQ inclusive, and community responsive. To that end, our PRISM network represents brave affinity groups made of corps members, alumni, staff, community members, and students, working jointly to advance Teach For America’s vision. We extend the work from our national initiative to regions that are best able to work alongside LGBTQ and allied partners in their area to advance educational equity.
